Experience or other requirements |
"Membership is open to people with voices in the male
vocal ranges who love to sing and are able to sing parts. Being able to
read music and prior singing experience is a plus, but not required.
Membership will require a reasonable level of physical health and
conditioning, including voice quality and pitch." |
Audition procedure |
"Formal auditions are not required. Instead, you are
asked to participate informally for 4 weeks of regular rehearsals;
during which time, as you become acquainted with the Choir and the
music, the Director has a chance to evaluate the vocal qualities of the
person." |
